Chapter 1696 - 628: Sect Hierarch (Still a Ten-Thousand-Word - ~)_5
If Su Mo is completely unaware and uses heavy force directly.
Wouldn’t he end up personally killing the person he wants to save?
Fang Hongying couldn’t help but ask:
"What is going on here?"
How could Xuanyuan Xiaoshan turn into the Blood Lotus Sect Leader all of a sudden?
This girl was clearly captured to offer blood, just like me.
Why has the identity swapped now?
At the same time, a female voice echoed from the flower bud:
"I’m also curious, how did you discover it?"
This voice is identical to the one from the Blood Lotus Sect Leader we heard just now.
Evidently, the true Blood Lotus Sect Leader has always been inside this blood lotus.
Su Mo raised his head, glanced at the flower bud, and gently shook his head:
"Although I have never seen her true appearance, I have seen her eyes.
"As the Holy Daughter of Tianxin Sect, Miss Xuanyuan’s eyes are pure and unforgettable.
"Even after several years, there’s still a sense of familiarity."
Little Situ felt somewhat sour in her heart.
After all this time, Su Mo still remembers what the young lady’s eyes look like?
But this thought flashed by quickly, surprising even herself.
How could I be thinking of such trivial matters at a time like this?
"Just by relying on her eyes?"
The Blood Lotus Sect Leader inside the flower bud obviously didn’t believe Su Mo.
Su Mo smiled slightly:
"Of course not just that.
"Although the martial arts she used were not of the same style as Tianxin Sect.
"Her Inner Strength was even inferior to the Vice Sect Hierarch of your sect.
"If not for this array aiding her, she couldn’t possibly have contended with me until now.
"May I ask, if the Sect Leader’s martial arts are inferior to the Vice Sect Hierarch, how does she command the sect?"
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Little Situ couldn’t help but cough.
Su Mo looked back at Little Situ, then glanced at Xuanyuan Xiaoshan and discovered her eyes were full of shame.
He couldn’t help but smile:
"Miss Xuanyuan, don’t mind, I have no ill intent, just speaking candidly, I hope you can forgive me."
Though she couldn’t speak, it wasn’t because Su Mo hit her Dumb Acupoint; she was still controlled by someone.
But her gaze became much calmer.
The Blood Lotus Sect Leader’s voice came from within the flower bud, laughing coldly:
"That is indeed a flaw...
"It’s just a pity the time was too short, otherwise... alas, seeing the Holy Daughter of Tianxin Sect earlier would have been great.
"One flaw isn’t a concern.
"But two flaws together and Chief Su certainly took notice.
"So it’s not surprising you discovered it."
Su Mo glanced at Xuanyuan Xiaoshan, and then focused back on the flower bud where the Blood Lotus Sect Leader was:
"Sect Leader, are you still not planning to show yourself at this point?"
"Show myself?"
The Blood Lotus Sect Leader inside the flower bud chuckled softly:
"It won’t be an issue to show myself, but I’m currently unclothed. If you want to look, you certainly may.
"But those around you will need to excuse themselves?"
"..."
Su Mo thought that the words might be reversed.
Little Situ couldn’t help but snort:
"What did you do to Xuanyuan Miss?"
Su Mo was surprised to hear Little Situ speak.
This young lady is usually gentle and quiet, rarely speaking so sharply.
"Methods?"
The woman inside the flower bud chuckled softly:
"What method could it be? Naturally, the Immortal Technique passed down by Blood Lotus Mother.
"This technique is called Body Seizing.
"It uses the Primordial Spirit to control the human heart, making her obey, even against her wishes.
"Chief Su has exceptional martial skills; I’m not your opponent, so you can come and go as you please.
"But if you take her away now, the Body Seizing Technique remains.
"As long as I wish, with a thought, she could kill everyone around her.
"Even if you kill me, this technique can’t be relieved.
"Because the Hall Master of Jingxin Hall can perform it, along with others you’ve never heard of.
"Taking her is easy, but resolving this matter is difficult..."
She paused here, then seemed to realize something very delightful:
"Chief Su, you are a supreme hero, a champion.
"Even from Xizhou, I’ve heard much about your feats.
"In Donghuang, you struck down the Youquan Sect master, killed the Eternal Night Demon Lord, and claimed the title of Donghuang’s premier warrior.
"Then you moved to Nanhai, where your battle shook Jianghu at Longmu Island.
"After, you subdued both the Nanhai Alliance and Dragon King Hall, and at the Martial God Temple, Gui Xu Island submitted fully.
"Thus, you unified Nanhai, deservedly known as the Nanhai Supreme!
"I long admired you.
"Meeting you today proves your reputation.
"I just wonder what this great hero, this champion, will do in such a predicament?"
Su Mo smiled upon hearing this:
"May I ask, Sect Leader, where are you?"
"Naturally beneath Bai Ye Lake, inside the Blood Pond."
"And where am I?"
"..."
The Blood Lotus Sect Leader inside the flower bud suddenly fell silent.
Being in the same place with Su Mo, leaving won’t be easy.
Though this technique is potent, with Su Mo’s skill, forcing a solution shouldn’t be too hard.
The Blood Lotus Sect Leader sighed:
"Chief Su truly is formidable, pinpointing my vulnerability with just a few words.
"Except... who knows whether Chief Su acts faster than my determination to end myself?"
